  1. Hi guys,

    New here, .5 yrs MCAM Mill + 1.5 yrs MCAM Lathe user ...

    I am going to be using a Harvey 26802 double angle cutter to deburr the backside of a 5mm hole, plus the frontside of another 5mm hole on the same axis but deeper. First thing I need to do (I think) is define the tool in my tool library -- what are the basics for that -- create a model of the tool and point the tool library at the model? How should the model axes go? Tool axis centered on Z I assume, then Z = zero at the tip of the tool?

    After I have the tool defined, how can I tell MCAM to use the "other" side of the double angle cutter to do the work for the backside deburring? In the chamfering dialog, it seems that the only option is to specify the tip offset, not the "other side" offset.

    Sorry if these are goofy ways to describe the scenario :rolleyes:

    Regards.

    Mike
